Who makes the least expensive TALL valve covers for the LS1? They don't need coil mounts as we can weld them on here.

Here is a couple.

 

Least hassle is a set of spacers, I have a set of APS covers here and they are nice.

 

Nasty Nates has the welded style $280 (w/o fittings) as well as Billet (which is very attractive $320 w/o fittings).

Phil, is this for use on the Jesel ETP or just ETP?

 

I've got a set of .500 spacers and it doesn't look like they are going to clear. jesel solid roller.

beck mechanical sells a 1" spacer, would that clear

The 1/2" cleared the T&Ds just fine with my old solid roller, had to take the baffles out though. Dont know if the jesels are any taller or not.

 

1/2" spacers should clear just about anything if you machine the baffels out of the passenger side. I would also recommend you upgrade to a ls6 style valey cover if you machine the baffels out.

 

The issue with this setup, and correct me if I am wrong Phil, the rockers sit up higher with the ETP Heads than stock, thus needing more spacer. I had to trim out the baffles and the deflection plate in my stock covers for use with my stock rockers! So that should tell you the room is tight. ETP uses not only a thicker deck, but they didnt machine it back down to stock size at the rocker pads, like using a 90mm lid, stock MAF and 90mm TB and Intake. They went the same thickness throughout. These heads are BEEF!

Check these out and the price is UNBELIEVABLE

 

Inexpensive yes, available no.

On my Chevy heads I had to clearance the rail of the head at each rocker and open the slot some for the push rod. Used 1/2 spacers but had to clearance them at each rocker also. Removed the oil baffels and etc. under the valve covers and ground a little clearance for the end rockers. Works fine now.

 

damn PM me when those suckers are out!!!!!

 

We have some 3/4" spacers in stock for $139.00 a set.

When we built the spacers Jesel provided us a head and all their LS1 rockers to check clearance with. The 1/2" cleared. You can get the B&B's at Scoggin & Dickey.

 

Those are bad ***.........

Should be a few more coming out now.... i know i saw them from the PRI Pic's............
